Nanit Pro Camera Review: Is the Smartest Baby Monitor Worth It?
The Nanit Pro is the best smart baby monitor you can buy in the UK: the overhead wall mount gives an unmatched view of breathing movement, the app is the most polished in the category, and the fabric breathing band means nothing electronic touches your baby. Its weaknesses are WiFi dependence and a subscription for full insight history.
Nanit · From £299
Bugaboo Fox 5 Review: Still the Pushchair to Beat?
The Bugaboo Fox 5 remains the benchmark full-size pushchair: the one-handed push and suspension are unmatched, the from-birth carrycot-to-seat system lasts to preschool, and resale values are the strongest in the category — which quietly cuts the real cost of ownership. It is expensive and it is big; it is also the best.
Bugaboo · From £1,115
Joie Versatrax Review: The Best Budget Pushchair, Tested
The Joie Versatrax is the best budget pushchair in the UK: a genuine from-birth lie-flat seat, big wheels, one-hand fold and infant car-seat compatibility at around £250. The push is heavier than premium prams and the fabrics run warm, but nothing else at this price is close.
Joie · From £250 (RRP £300)
Doona Car Seat & Stroller Review: Genius or Gimmick?
The Doona is the only R129 infant car seat that converts into a stroller in one motion, and for taxi-heavy city life, flying, or families without a car it is genuinely transformative. It is not a pushchair replacement for long walks — small wheels, no basket, and it’s heavy to carry — so buy it for the door-to-door use case, not as your only wheels.
Doona · From £474
Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Day & Night Review: The 3am Game-Changer?
The Perfect Prep Day & Night makes a body-temperature bottle in about two minutes by firing a 70°C+ hot shot through the powder first — matching the NHS temperature guideline — then topping up with cooler water. For formula-feeding families it genuinely transforms night feeds; the trade-off is non-negotiable upkeep: filters, descaling and cleaning on schedule.
Tommee Tippee · From £96 (RRP £130)
Stokke Tripp Trapp Review: The Last Highchair You’ll Buy?
The Tripp Trapp is the buy-once highchair: a solid beech chair whose seat and footrest adjust to fit a six-month-old, a toddler, a school child and eventually an adult at the same table. The catch is the price of entry — the chair alone doesn’t include the baby set (harness and rail) you need for the highchair stage, so cost the full setup before comparing.
Stokke · From £199 (chair only; baby set extra)
